The Londonderry sifter. (South Londonderry, Vt.) 1883-19??, 1887-12-08
Our Club Offer.
Room the sifter.-what the People shy
OF 10.

Yes, they, the people. They are CIV
ing it special boom just now. And
what rebuke it is to the parties who
little less than year ago were NOV
ing heaven and earth to suppress it,
vowing that they would do it let the
cost be what it would. The elegant
language then used was, "that id
SITTER shall be suppressed at any
cost" Ha, Ha Well the cost, so
far, to these parties, has been about
81, 800 and the SITTER is the health
lest suppressed newspaper ever seen.
Well we won't say anything more
about it, for we know that there isn't
man among them unless its Levi,
and he, poor fellow, doesn't know any
better), who is not heartily ashamed
of the whole trans action, and we fell
disposed to forgive and forget, and
desire to live in peace with all man
kind. So here's our other cheek.
But mind you if you smite it again
we shall kick like a stall-fed mule.
But to our subject in hand: Boom
ing the SITTER. How can it help
but boom when it makes such extra
ordinary offers: The SITTER and
Metropolitan paper, each one year for
S1.25 or the SITTER and any two of
them for $1.65. My AS one of
our classical and distinguished broth
er editors recently remarked, cit
beats the Dutch !" Therefore, we
rise to inquire if you are not going to
tell all your neighbors about it and
get them to join you in taking advan-
tage of this offer? When this is done
do up your little mites, enclose with
your names, and address SITTER Office,
So. Londonderry, Vt. 0, you want
to know what the SITTER is going to
be the coming year! just as it al
ways has been: Bright, Newsy and
Saucy. 1t owns itself and don't ask
anybody what it shall say. 1t be-
lieyes in clean men and honest polit-
ical methods. 1t aspires to be the
organ of the common people. 1t
don't care continental for the polit-
ical fraud and humbug, if he has got
plenty of money, and means to scalp
him every chance it gets.
For the coming year, it's local cor
respondence will be largely extended,
and in the matter of town news will
not be exceeded by any paper in
southern Vermont. In short every
intelligent man and woman, who own
themselves, will want it, and every
man who is mortgaged to some clique,
clan, faction or political fraud and
humbug had better let it alone, for it
will be constantly hurting his feelings.
